Mount the Repeater Adapter Module
This section explains how to mount the 1786-RPA/B repeater adapter module.
Figure 1 - Mounting Dimensions
TIP
Horizontal mounting is preferred. Vertical mounting is allowed.
We recommend that the 1786-RPA/B module be mounted at the
top if vertical mounting is chosen.
ATTENTION:
This product is grounded through the DIN rail to
chassis ground. Use zinc plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to
assure proper grounding. The use of other DIN rail materials (for
example, aluminum or plastic) that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor
conductors, can result in improper or intermittent grounding.
Secure DIN rail to mounting surface approximately every 200 mm
(7.8 in.) and use end-anchors appropriately.
Dimensions are in mm (in.).
